The labelObj is embedded in classes, so you can just do this:
$class->label->set(type, MS_TRUETYPE);
$class->label->set(font, 'arial');
$class->label->set(size, 10);
$class->label->color->setRGB(64,64,64);

There isn't a separate outline transparency (as far as I know).
TRANSPARENCY affects the entire layer, including the outlinecolor.
Try this:
$layer->set(transparency, 50);

That is a good question. Probably the best source is the
mapserver-users archives, which you can access via the new MapServer
website: http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/community/mailinglists/mapserver-users/
There are also some examples under the "howto" section of the
Documentation area.
